Ingredients:
– 4 medium zucchinis
– 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
– 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
– 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
– 1/4 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
– 2 cloves of garlic, minced
– Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Cut the zucchinis in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds and flesh, leaving about a 1/4-inch thick shell. Place the zucchini boats on the prepared baking sheet.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, basil, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
4. Fill each zucchini boat with the cheese mixture, pressing it down to ensure the boats are filled evenly.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the zucchinis are tender.
6. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with additional chopped basil or grated parmesan if desired.
These cheesy baked zucchini boats make for a delicious and healthy appetizer or side dish. Try them out for your next gathering or family dinner and watch them disappear in no time!
